Science and Hypothesis

It is to be hoped that; as a consequence of the present active scrutiny of our educational aims and methods; and of the resulting encouragement of the study of modern languages; we shall not remain; as a nation; so much isolated from ideas and tendencies in continental thought and literature as we have been in the past. As things
are; however; the translation of this book is doubtless required; at any rate; it brings vividly before us an instructive point of view.
